short Course Vs Desert Truck - rear End - Photo 03

When hitting the dirt track, a wheelbase of about 116 inches is the place to be. On a desert Trophy, that length stretches out to about 124 inches on Cameron's Geiser Brothers truck, where high-speed stability is a bit more of an issue and the longer wheelbase helps keep the taller truck under control. Overall track widths are close but the short-course version at 93 inches edges out the Trophy Truck which sits at 90 inches wide.
